Zouhair Belkoura
Zouhair Belkoura is the founder and CEO of Keepsafe, a San Francisco company that builds a family of consumer privacy apps used by tens of millions of people worldwide. A former electrical engineering PhD who researched mobile video coding, he has built Keepsafe around the idea that privacy is a form of freedom and that ordinary people deserve simple tools to control their personal photos, messages, and browsing. He is a frequent writer and speaker on the difference between abstract data privacy and the content privacy that actually matters to people's daily lives.
Keepsafe
Keepsafe is a San Francisco privacy-software company that builds simple consumer apps for locking down personal data on phones. Its flagship Photo Vault - an encrypted locker for private photos and videos - grew to more than 75 million users, and the company has since expanded into a suite that includes App Lock, a private Browser with built-in VPN, and Unlisted burner phone numbers. Founded in 2012 by Zouhair Belkoura and Philipp Berner, Keepsafe's premise is that digital privacy should be as easy as closing a drawer.
